In Bologna zag ik deze fraaie oude boeken. Heel anders dan een digitaal archief.

Z-Library: New Problems

My private URL for Z-Library no longer works. These were an innovation Z-Library started a year or two ago. You sent an email message to them, and they sent you back custom URLs just for you.

However, I found http://zlib24th6ptyb4ibzn3tj2cndqafs6rhm4ed4gruxztaaco35lka.b32.i2p/ This works just fine, and will be harder to block, but I2P doesn't make connections as easily as the Clearnet, and not even as easily as Onionland. Also, a lot of you don't run I2P.

For now, https://singlelogin.re/ is also working.

During the Great Depression, the Pack Horse Library Project was a Works Progress Administration (WPA) program in which the librarians, who were often called "book women" or "book ladies," delivered books to remote parts of Appalachia.

Publishers Secure Widespread Support in Landmark Copyright Battle With Internet Archive

https://torrentfreak.com/publishers-secure-widespread-support-in-landmark-copyright-battle-with-internet-archive-240324/

Major book publishers continue their legal crusade against Internet Archive's scan-and-lend library, hoping to shut it down for good. IA's appeal previously received support from authors and copyright scholars. The publishers, however, have some heavyweight backers too. New amicus briefs are signed by former U.S. politicians, former judges, and legal scholars. Industry groups such as the MPA and RIAA also rally behind the publishers.

Third Time’s a Charm — #Lunar #Library Successfully Lands on the #Moon#Backup of Human #Civilization Will Last for Up To Billions of Years.

One day, these spaceborne knowledge repositories will not only preserve our past, but will also enrich, inspire and accompany #future generations who venture forth and make their homes amongst other worlds. They will carry the flame of our civilization, our #heritage and our #homeworld with them.

I would be surprised if our civilization survives the next 50 years and whether we will still have the ability to reach #space at all. Another danger is the destruction of #knowledge by #AI. If AI can tell us everything in the future, nobody will have to learn anything.
